During the last transfer window, one of the major stories featured Emiliano Martínez. "Dibu," who ended the last season bidding farewell to Aston Villa fans with tears, was close to leaving several times. However, after the latest strong rumors linking him to Manchester United, it was decided that he would stay in Birmingham, and Unai Emery, the team's coach, spoke about his situation.
In the last match before traveling with the Argentine National Team, the Spanish coach removed him from the starting lineup, and when asked, he only responded, "Bizot, Marco Bizot," avoiding speaking about the Argentine. Now, he has praised him highly, and he would return to the starting position.
"Him staying is good news. I am very happy about it because he is the best goalkeeper in the world. His commitment to Villa is enormous," he stated in a press conference. "He always trains giving his best, respecting Aston Villa. Emi is very happy and knows that his challenges are now with Aston Villa and the Argentine National Team," he added.
